The world's most famous melting cheese, Raclette is made in the Alps on both sides of the French-Swiss border. The French version is perhaps a bit softer than Swiss Raclette, but the two taste very similar. Raclette has a semi-soft interior dotted with small holes, and a rosy, inedible rind. Eaten as a table cheese, Raclette has a smooth, creamy taste that is neither too salty nor sharp. However, our French Raclette tends to have a strong, pungent aroma that is not for the timid. This cheese is traditionally melted (a half wheel is placed in a fireplace, then the melted top surface is continuously scraped off) and layered atop boiled potatoes, pickles, fresh vegetables, and sliced meats. Check out our recipes and try it for yourself! .

If I could give a higher review I would! I was sent 4lbs of raclette, but when I received it, it was warmed and melted. I emailed the customer service rep, Dina, and she refunded me AND sent me out more cheese! I will forever use this company. Thank you again!

The Best of the Best!

We have had various versions of raclette but we keep coming back to this one every time. There's no comparison! Creamy, melty and so luxurious!

French review for french raclette

I am french and i can guarantee you that is an excellent cheese! So good, lots of flavor! A little bit too soft to cut but we really enjoyed it for our raclette party!

Great young raclette!

I ordered from a different cheese service. They sent a "lb" of cheese that was closer to 15 oz, with a label stuck to the face. On top of it, the rind was cracked and crushed! When I drew their attention to this, they said "gee, that's just how cheese cutting is!"
Total BS, thinks I.
So I ordered another pound here. It arrived in good shape and vacuum packed. The cheese was soft, creamy, of a slightly nutty taste and that raclette strength. Really very good. It was also almost on the nose 16oz. Bingo!
At dinner we had to compare the two. The igourmet cheese was clearly younger and in the age "range" I would expect from a good cheese monger. (Reminds me of this little cheese place on rue Oberkampf in Paris. --it was that perfect.) Anyway, tasting the two cheeses the other was clearly old, dried out a little too much.
Moral of the story -- this was a good cheese, well-packed and a reasonable price. From now I will never buy from the online cheese shop that starts with an "M." Igourmet has me. I live in a small town so mail is about the ONLY way to get the good stuff. I'll order more of this cheese for the next raclette party.

Great Service and selection

This is the third time I have ordered items from igourmet. I have never been disappointed. Their selection is great. Their ordering process is efficient and easy to use and their shipping has always been on time without damage. Their products are high quality and my go to for special treats. Thank you for being there for us.

Delicious!

I had my first wine and cheese party and the french raclette cheese was a hit! The package came in on time and well wrapped and fresh. I had a party of 10 and everyone enjoyed it!
